RUNNING FOR FREEDOM 5 IN 5
Mui Wo resident Jo Lodder completed his second Run for Freedom on March 5 running five trails in five days to support two local charities 1st Steps HK and TAILS Lantau. Jo’s epic ‘5 in 5’ (he is the first person to achieve it) saw him covering over 390km and nearly 20,000m in elevation on the Tinworth, Wilson, Hong Kong, MacLehose and Lantau Trails. Aiming to help disabled people and abused animals find freedom, Jo has already raised over HK$100,000. Click here to make a donation. [PHOTOS COURTESY OF Jo Lodder.]
